Things that irritate you more than they should

[safcrob]

People that go into Argos, look for the item they want and then pick the slip up and write down the order number, why not just have the number already wrote down on a piece of paper and go straight to the cue, they only need the number anyway.

Shit weather. That being high winds,cold and snow. Stop me riding my bike.


Being a wimp. Stops me riding my bike.

a) Finish listening to music through earbuds. Fold them neatly and put them away.

b) Next day....go for earbuds and they are in a massive, tangled ball. HOW THE FUCK DOES THIS HAPPEN ?

Not just tangled. f***ing KNOTTED.

Putting milk in first is the correct way. If you add milk to boiling water it becomes scalded and tastes bitter. Adding hot water to milk allows the milk time to heat up without scalding.

How can you be adding milk to boiling water? You make the tea in the cup/mug/pot with boiling water. let it brew. Add the milk, by which time the tea is well off boiling.

Queue.

People at work just chucking the teaspoon on the draining board - wash, rinse and put away you heathens!

people who indicate when they are sat at traffic lights in a lane that can only go one direction anyway (for example, sitting in a turn left only lane and indicating left).

I do this all the time. If a cyclist comes up behind and maybe is aware of the 'left only' thing, they may expect you to go straight ahead. Assume all other road users are completed knobs and you'll avoid a lot of incidents.

In Victorian times, people who could afford the best china, used to put the hot tea in the cup before the milk to show they could afford the best. Cheap china would crack.

 

[Tomma]

Been mentioned on here a few times, but people who say pacific and pacifically instead of specific and specifically.

And people who use an 'f' sound for 'th'. Lazy gets.

 

[TIMMY]

... when people manually turn the sound on the TV down to zero instead of just pressing the f***ing mute button

Only acceptable if the mute symbol obscures the scores on SSN

[JL1985]

Football commentators or pundits using the word unbelievable.

 

[Curry]

Especially when they are pissed and you are not.

I was always the driver aswell. To be fair I hated them before we went out but I came home richer which is more important than having friends.

 

[Fact Hunt]

Dogs and children in pubs.

 

[cornish mackem]

Can you tell the difference?

Yes, it's nicer with the milk in first

 

[Jasper]

Coat hangers can sometimes drive me to apoplectic fury.

Hotel ones that you can’t nick are the worst. Not cause you can’t nick them but that in their efforts to become thief proof, they become fiddly to yse.

 

[cornish mackem]

Has anyone mentioned noisy eaters or crunching yet? I hate it and I have left quite a few tables because of it.

 

[Horatio Pugwash]

Yes, it's nicer with the milk in first

Cannit tell the difference

 

[Some Random Guy]

Can you tell the difference?

The tea doesn't brew properly so it ends up weak as piss.

 

[foggy]

That's bordering on criminal that like.

So it's not just me. Thank fuck for that

 

[cornish mackem]

Cannit tell the difference

It's creamy if you put the milk in before the water
